Louis Armstrong

Soul Urge (Heart Desire) Number 7

“ When I play, maybe 'Back o' Town Blues,' I'm thinking about one of the old, low-down moments - when maybe your woman didn't treat you right. That's a hell of a moment when a woman tell you, 'I got another mule in my stall.'”

Louis Armstrong was an American trumpeter, composer, singer and occasional actor, known for his charismatic stage presence and voice almost as much as for his trumpet-playing, and was widely regarded as a profound influence on popular music in general.

He was born on Sunday August 4th 1901, in New Orleans, Louisiana, United States.

Louis Armstrong loves knowledge, study, and insight. He values the gifts of his mind, which he uses to great advantage to penetrate the mysteries of life. Louis studies things in-depth. He searches beneath the surface of things, and abhors shallow judgments or opinions.

Armstrong has a natural gift for analysis and research. Once Louis Armstrong has grasped the facts of a subject, his creativity and abstract approach lifts his thinking beyond the rudimentary to the philosophical. Louis has a theoretical mind, but rather than indulge in fantasies or idle thought, he prefers to base his theories upon scientific facts.

He enjoys mental and physical puzzles - figuring them out, taking them apart, and putting them back together.

Some people may perceive Louis as cool or aloof. He is somewhat introverted; Armstrong may feel slightly removed and even a little different. The fantasy of the hermit or monk engaged in a life of study and meditation appeals to him.

In relationships, Louis Armstrong tends to keep things business-like and impersonal. He prefers to talk about the facts of a given situation, rather than the cloudier issues of emotions and personal feelings. Louis distrusts feelings - both his own and those of others. The whole emotional realm strikes him as unreliable, and a bit unnecessary.

Louis Armstrong's inability to fully understand the emotional aspect of life is his Achilles heel. Louis is so rational that the unpredictability of the heart frightens and surprises him.

His challenge is to trust. Louis Armstrong needs to share his heart with someone. This is a courageous step for him, but one that results in enormous growth and satisfaction.

The advice here to Armstrong is to make a true connection with another human being. Without it, Louis may marry out of convenience or to fulfill social expectations, but it will not lead him out of loneliness. The more removed he is from people, the more Louis Armstrong risks isolation, bitterness, and a cynical attitude toward life.

This choice represents a true crossroads in Louis' development. By sharing himself with others (without compromising his independence and need for privacy) Louis can cultivate his enormous charm and share his understanding of life. Louis Armstrong is a natural teacher and advisor. And the wealth of knowledge he will accumulate in life is meant to be shared with others.

This is not to say that Armstrong must compromise on his need for privacy or time spent alone to contemplate life. These are natural aspects of Armstrong's personality, which are essential to his growth. These characteristics should not be threatening to Louis' spouse, but must be understood as fundamental to his being.

Louis Armstrong is blessed with a great reserve of intuition, which can be cultivated by regular meditation and contemplation. His "inner voice" is his greatest guide and friend.

Louis is idealistic and has high expectations for himself. Armstrong must learn to balance his serious nature with regular doses of fun.

His intelligence and cultivation make Louis Armstrong charming and distinguished in appearance. As he gets older and more comfortable with his identity, people are naturally attracted to him. They see Louis' wisdom, his deep understanding of life, and the refinement Armstrong radiates.
